Byrne, Keira McKenzie, Robin Pen, Richard Scriven, Jonathan Strahan, Chris Stronach to \#6 (Oct 1991), thereafter only Byrne, Scriven and Strahan.This elegant, A5 desk-top published perfect-bound magazine has the appearance of an academic critical journal, but in fact publishes mainly sf/fantasy fiction, with some articles and reviews. It is available through subscription rather than from newsstands. E has had surprising success, with fiction on the whole superior to that of its east-coast rival, AUREALIS, and won a 1991 Ditmar (AWARDS) for Best Fanzine/Semiprozine. It has published stories by Harlan ELLISON, George TURNER, Terry DOWLING, Greg EGAN, Leanne Frahm, Rosaleen LOVE, Philippa Maddern and Sean MCMULLEN, among others.
